Well I looked up Duck and im pretty happy hearing him I will check out some others tommorow.

Some people think thats the only way to become a pro nowadays.

Yeah, I have been noticing how now a days bassist play a lot of slap. I dont really like slap(I dont like playing it.) Are there any people dominating the scene with there fingers. My favorite thing about a player is when they can groove. Are there any players that play with there fingers and can groove? Im having a hard time explaining this. I know people play with there fingers but I mean, Is there a bassist that fingers like Victor slaps?

I have been playing for about 7-8 months. And I play alot. acdc isint any fun. But I am realllly digging cream at the moment. And Im still big into rush just find there stuff difficult becuase there progressive rock they change stuff up often leaveing me lost. Haha but its all good geddys a amazing bassist.
